Zhen Fei rises up in the Red Chamber

The more people who usually look healthy, the more menacing they are when they really want to get sick, and it is not easy to get well, let alone those who forcibly suppress the sick people. Once the old emperor lay down, he would never I haven't gotten up, and many people are even thinking at this moment, is it true that when the old emperor established the crown prince, he had already made a definite preparation for his body, and that's why he was so agile? It has been dealt with cleanly, leaving a relatively stable and clean court, so that the prince can go through this transitional period smoothly and ensure the stability of the world?

Regardless of whether it is true or not, at this moment almost most of the courtiers are definitely secretly delighted that there is a prince who can successfully keep their status without taking risks.Although Conglong Zhigong is indeed very attractive, everyone has a family and a business, and safety is still very important.

So in the evening of this day, after the bell of the emperor's death was heard from the palace, almost everyone moved in one movement, that was a long sigh of relief, because Master Zhen's political acumen made people anxious The fellow also sighed a few times, although none of what he said was on point, leaving Zhen Hui speechless:

"When it's cold and cold, it's hard for the elderly, especially in this capital. I don't know that the old people die at this time every year. It's too cold in the north! When I get old, I just want to live for a few more years. , and go back to Suzhou as soon as possible."

Tell me, what are you talking about? Fortunately, this is at home, otherwise people will hear it, and I don’t know if it will make people pull their pigtails.Zhen Hui hurriedly changed the topic and asked:

"Father, hurry up and change your clothes. You officials are going to cry for such a national funeral. It's too late."

When he said this, Master Zhen came to his senses and left in a hurry without a word, but Zhen Hui was actually busier than Master Zhen at the moment. After all, Master Zhen's official position is really inconspicuous. The Crying Spirit Festival and so on are just to gather the number of people. As long as the people arrive, few people will pay attention to them, and they can take a break when they have time. But Zhen Hui, he has to hurry up and arrange things about his new house.

"Brother, are you going out?"

After walking a few steps, Zhen Ji's voice came from behind, so it is really restrained to have a brother who is a follower, let alone a brother who is in high spirits, since I took him to After entering the new house and letting him see the small courtyard that will belong to him in the future, after listening to his advice and preparing to clean it up, this kid is like installing a radar on Zhen Hui. Every time he goes out, he can always After being found by this kid, he stalked him and wanted to go out with him, just to see what his yard looks like now.

Of course, it’s no wonder he did this, the reason all came from his own embarrassment, showing off in front of those little kids that he had the ability to design his own house, which made all the kids jealous, and then every time Once we meet, ask him to talk about what the yard is like now?When will it be good?When can they visit?

Under such pressure, it is impossible for him not to think about it. Although he is weak and has no one to intervene in anything, but at least he has eyes. As long as he sees the changes in this house, he can do more Some things to talk about, the most important thing is that those children have never seen how others repair the house, and they are very interested, but it makes Zhen Ji have a storyteller's addiction, and feel the love that others admire when they look at him. Eyes, I instantly feel that I am knowledgeable, and that feeling is really not ordinary.Under such circumstances, it's no wonder that Zhen Ji followed Zhen Hui so hard.

"You are in a good mood. Unfortunately, this time is not a good thing. Didn't you hear the bells just now? You are also a person who has already started reading. You should be able to distinguish the length of the bell from the ninety-nine 81 ringing." It means, our house, there is no play recently, you'd better stay at home. Don't go out if you have nothing to do, it's not the time to play around recently. "

Even though Zhen Ji is only six years old, he is a child of an official family after all. He grew up in this capital city under the feet of the emperor. Most of the people he comes into contact with are the children of honorable official families. He knows a lot. , Now that Zhen Hui said this, he immediately had a face full of enlightenment.

"I said, why did the bell ring suddenly? I know my brother, and I will stay at home obediently."

At critical moments, this child is still very reliable. Knowing that what his elder brother said is reasonable, he immediately stopped messing around. This is many times better than ordinary children. Maybe there is him here. Mentally is always more mature.

When Zhen returned to the new house, the craftsmen who repaired the house for the Zhen family were already waiting here, with a bit of panic on their faces. They all knew what the national funeral represented, although the uncle of the Zhen family was very It's not bad, the wages are enough these days, but no matter how good it is, it can't compare to the crisis of starvation, so at this moment they really came to ask for help, and put all their old faces down.

Fortunately, Zhen Hui had already planned. When he saw these people, he immediately began to assign tasks. He told those craftsmen to close the door to do work every day. Those who made a lot of noise could not be done within three months. They could only paint and paint. Rest the plants and trees in the yards everywhere, and also said very neatly that since they are invited, they will never be ignored. Although it can't be the same as before, everyone has work to do, but these craftsmen are still invited to be responsible for cleaning and sweeping. Keep them from starving.

The status of craftsmen these days is very low, and their lives are extremely poor. Now that they can have such a guarantee, they are already overjoyed. If there is food to eat, they will not need money for their subsequent work. As long as they are given food every day, they will do it for nothing.

Hearing such words, even Zhen Hui, whose heart has been hardened by the experience of this ancient hierarchical society, felt a little sore in his eyes.He is not a pickpocket, nor is he a miser. He is willing to take advantage of these poor people. The annual family expenses of these people are only about ten taels. They are the people at the bottom of the whole society. If there is no him The wages here, after finishing his family's work, if he didn't receive the next job, maybe even eating would be a problem.

So in the end, Zhen Hui did a good job, not only keeping these people from having nothing to eat during these few months, but also explaining that when the worst of these three months passed, he would give them additional money.Because he wants to add work, like in the courtyard of the main courtyard, trees and flower beds will be planted in the four corners, and some small landscapes will be cleaned up in each courtyard behind. If there is no work to do, as long as there is work, they will not be afraid of having nothing to eat, and even the craftsmen who are motivated have provided Zhen Hui with a lot of solutions for free.

Each of these people has done a lot of work for other people. Maybe they know better than these nobles, but no one pays attention to it. Now that Zhen Hui is a good person, he is naturally willing to contribute Come out, there are some creepers planted on the side of the road, it will be more beautiful in summer, and it is more affordable than the flower bed, why should some flowers be planted behind the screen wall, so that the main room looks more beautiful, even those across the yard, the back cover room should be No matter how to deal with it, there is a certain amount of valuable experience, and they are all easy and economical methods, which made Zhen Hui's eyes light up when he heard it.

After all the artisans in this house are settled properly and things are assigned, Zhenhui will really be an otaku's life in the next few days. During this national funeral, going out to play or something is something a fool would do Son, and this winter there are no games, no door-to-door activities, so what else can you do?It's just that you can only nest in your own house.

Fortunately, he still has younger siblings by his side, so he can still be the head of the children, tell stories to them, and supervise their studies.Only Mr. Zhen was busy in and out, working in full swing, which was very different from the leisurely life of the past.

Zhen Hui saw it in his eyes, and actually understood it very well. The new emperor is about to ascend the throne, so in other words, things like Enke are coming soon.Although the beginning of this year is the year of the rural examination, and the next year will be the time of the big competition, but if there is no Enke, there is no way to reflect what is called the emperor's grace, so even if this is likely to meet with the rural examination Whether it is the Ministry of Rites or the Imperial College, they all have to prepare for the exam. Who knows when the new emperor will give an order all at once.

Sure enough, just after a simple New Year without banquets, Enke's decree came down. February was too late for Enke, so it was put directly in April, and the decree had already been issued to all states and counties.Obviously, those Ju people are happy all of a sudden, because in this way, if they fail the exam in April, they can take the exam again in February next year, that is to say, they can take the exam for two consecutive years. I went up naturally, can you not be happy?

Zhen Hui is also happy!In this way, there must be many Juren coming to Beijing, and the rental house business of these children will definitely be booming again, and this time there will be an exam for two consecutive years, so that is to say, if Juren fails this time, They will definitely not go back to their hometown, but will choose to live for another half a year, a year, and prepare for the next time. Their house may be full every day.

Only Lin Xun, Zhen Hui felt, this baby's life is really bad, why can't the emperor die later, he didn't start to take the provincial exam until August, even if he passed the exam smoothly, he wouldn't be able to get this kind of grace What a benefit, what a pity.

And myself, I still think about starting to exert my strength in a few years. Now it seems that my life is not good. The first few batches of the new emperor are the easiest to be reused, and the new Jinshi who are the easiest to rush out. I guess I don’t have any. What's the deal, wait until I successfully pass the exam, and then go to the exam, that's the third batch, if that's the case, it's better to be safe, wait a little longer, at least let my age go up, so that I don't Get some eye-catching young talents.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that my plan has failed. Zhen Hui, who is still in his early years, feels a little boring looking at the book in his hand. Fortunately, there are two kiddos nearby, otherwise Zhen Hui would be depressed for several times. sky.

As for whether the affairs in the court are really so calm or not, Zhen Hui feels that he really can't see too much. Can Master Zhen succeed in taking the opportunity to climb up again? He also simply let it go. Well, things have come to this point, people are not as good as God, it's better to be honest.Who knows how many fires the new emperor will burn when he ascends the throne!

During the time when Zhen Hui was an otaku, the funeral of the old emperor was finally completed. At the same time, the fire of the new emperor finally started to burn. What Zhen Hui did not expect was that the first fire actually burned to the It's the Wang family, Prince Teng's family.By the way, the Xue family, members of these two four major families, were also mentioned.
